I asked someone I have been talking with if he would marry me. He replied well its kinda early and would like a longer courtship. So I said okay lets just continue but now he won't talk to me. He never did answer me about the proposal. What is he thinking. I can't read mines. You men are martians from mars so please help me to understand you.

You want to marry someone you've been talking to? You say he replied but later say he didn't answer your proposal? I doubt anyone can read "mines".

If he hasn't responded in a number of days perhaps you've scared him off.

Perhaps I'm more traditional in the sense that I think that while its appropriate for a woman to let a man know that she's interested in him, he is the leader. Yeah yeah I know there will be those who balk at my opinion, but that indeed is how I think. Now the hard part is to get me to agree!!! lol

Firstly, it depends on the context of your "talking" - have you been physically dating for long? Is your talking only on the internet, or phone or skype?

If you have not been physically dating, then I'd say that his response might be a natural one. Me personally, I couldn't give such an answer to someone that I might like, but whom I have not dated physically and spent time with in real time and for at least some time.

I went half way around the world to meet my fiance. She knew that she loved me without meeting me, and I felt strong feelings for her, but I had to make sure by physically meeting her and spending time with her.

The amount of information you have given does not allow a satisfactory conclusion to be formed. What do you mean by "talking"? Is there physical "dating" in there somewhere? The answer to this question will definitely determine what sort of "help" you might get from blokes. Yes even me.

We kind of need more information about the circumstances of your "talking" before we can realistically give you any idea why he is not talking to you still.

Did you start off by "talking" about how much you like him. Was that reciprocated? Then did it progress to that you love him? Was this then also reciprocated? Then did you ask him to marry you?

What is the background sequences and "talk" that led you to pop this question?

Cheers,

Who would be
Now don`t get me wrong here, Im no expert when it comes to dating or relationships yet I`d kinda would recommend to take one step at the time ...dating for a while, if that works, move in together ... if that works ,ask the big question
and still at the end of our lives we`re probably gonna more regret the things we didn`t do than the things we did ...( Im so awesome in confusing people)...redclown

reading between the lines, it sounds like you have only been talking to him, why would anyone ask someone to marry them unless you have been together for a whiledoh

i think he would think you are desperatemumbling if i was a guy that would scare me off too.

sounds stalkerish to medunno sorry but jmo.

Forget him !!!
I never asked men who live in Vegas to marry me...

I only ask those who have the same values with me which means those who respect women and put women in the proper place...

I set my standards in the first place...so I would never feel regret afterwards...everytime I meet bad guys, I always feel hungry... I don't need extra time to decide whether I should eat him or avoid him... the faster the quicker the better...LOL...rolling on the floor laughing

Just noticed that if not all , most of Ops options on this poll... are quite full of self indulgence... it's the guy , bf , date , whatever, guilty here for not accepting her proposal one way or another...


Shouldn't u take a look at what are u doing as a grown up lady op?

"Will you marry me?" is a "heavyweight" question. Whether asked too early or at the right time is irrelevant - it is the kind of "life" question that deserves an answer almost immediately (Like...."Wannna fight? Grrrr! :grin)

It seems he DID answer you immediately - he thought it was too early and wanted a longer courtship - and then proceeded to fade away. You do the math. If you truly feel he is worth it,....TALK! Even if it starts as a "one-sided" conversation. let him know how you feel, and if he still does not respond, move on! Best of luck!

To be honest, it's hard to believe this poll is serious lol, but, nonetheless...

With all due respect, he most certainly did answer you... twice.
The first time he said he wanted a longer courtship and the
second time he stopped speaking... I'd say that's a definite 'No' on the proposal.

What's he thinking? If you felt comfortable enough to propose to him it might be helpful to directly ask him? We have no clue what's in his head. However it seems his verbal and nonverbal communication says a lot.

Good luck to you.
